Review: Based in Suffolk, ActRaiser goes by Rob Sayles in real life, and until quite recently he was best known for a string of liquid funk releases on labels such as Fokuz, Celsius and Influenza Media. His fourth album, however, finds him back in the downtempo/chill-out territory where he started out - his 2011 debut album came out on Cold Busted. 'Short Stories' may be sitting in our Broken Beat/Nu-Jazz pages but you won't find too many 7/13 time signatures or pointless flute noodles here - instead think dreamy, soulful instrumental vibes from the Balearic side of the street. It's a little 'polite' in places, maybe, but easy on the ear all the same.

Review: Kenneth Christiansen's revered dub techno institution celebrates fifteen years of trusted innovation on this superb compilation showcasing the label's esteemed roster of legends. Starting out with the always impressive Stephan Laubner aka STL who surprises as always; this time with the haunting yet bittersweet ambient journey "The Ancient Scale". There's more from masters of the old school such as German producer Arovane and his broken low end theory on "Struktur 1", the deeply rooted resonations of XDB's "Latonal" and Fachwerk main man Mike Dehnert's Maurizio inspired "Track Providing Home" being one of our highlights.

Review: For those who have ever wondered what a William Basinski and Leyland Kirby collaboration might sound like, Lamentations should give you a pretty good idea. By combining elements of vinyl/tape loops with crackle, pop, degradation and a touch of classic, opera and ballroom aesthetics, deeply introverted drone, end of the world atmospheres and poetic narratives on this LP are beautiful and overwhelming at the same time. Not a record for the faint hearted, it's easy to imagine oneself here cutting through a luscious abyss of distant memories, sombre tones and lilting themes of theatrical dissonance, natural allure and deep seated love and affection.
